Perhaps this is a case of "Not Doing Smart Things While Driving".  I
stopped at a light behind small car containing a (presumably)
mother, about 4 year old daughter, and a small infant.  The daughter
was riding standing in the back seat with her entire upper torso
sticking out the window (the side windows sloped on this car), the
baby was in an infant seat (Oregon state law), but the infant seat
was not belted to the car (I could see this because in my Vanagon I
can look down into other cars).  Need I say that the mother was not
buckled in either, but if she didn't care for her children's safety
she probably wouldn't care for her own either.

She was also smoking a cigarette, but that is a case of "Doing Dumb
Things While Driving".
